Overview

As the craft of creation continues to evolve and require more strategic thinking, we must also evolve our mindset and tools to address today’s greatest political, social, environmental, and cultural challenges. Futures design and thinking provides a set of tools that can prepare us for the ever-changing landscape of the future and enable us to better assess the challenges of emerging technologies, climate change, and the implications of dynamic social structures.

In this edition of Radar Talks, Design Futures Initiative founder Phil Balagtas takes a deep dive into the futures design and thinking methodology. You’ll learn how to use futures thinking as a strategic tool to uncover threats and opportunities on the near and distant horizon.
